Ifa, Orishas, Christianity & Spiritual Scams with Oba Ogunlano
In this episode of Perspektives with Bank, Big Bank welcomes Oba Ogunlano for an eye-opening conversation about Ifa spirituality, Yoruba traditions, ancestral connections, and African cultural identity. Drawing from his family's spiritual lineage, Oba explains the origins of Ifa, the teachings of Orunmila, the 256 Odu, and how divination readings help practitioners seek guidance and align with their destiny. He breaks down the roles of the Orishas, Olodumare, ori (spiritual consciousness), ancestral reverence, initiation, and personal accountability while challenging misconceptions that reduce Ifa to magic or supernatural shortcuts. He also discusses spiritual discipline, taboos, and why individual choices remain essential to fulfilling one's purpose. The conversation takes a deeper turn as Oba addresses fraudulent spiritual practitioners, questionable pricing, and the dangers of anyone guaranteeing results through spiritual work. He explores the historical relationship between African spirituality and Christianity, how Ifa traditions survived through Cuba and communities like Oyotunji, and the distinctions between Ifa, Hoodoo, and Santería. Oba also shares his views on harmful spiritual practices, the importance of preserving African American cultural identity, and the mission behind the NAA Tribe. From ancestral wisdom to modern spirituality, Big Bank and Oba Ogunlano deliver a thought-provoking discussion about faith, cultural preservation, spiritual responsibility, and discovering your path.

Love & Hip Hop Wanted Drama, Not My Music with Omeretta
Big Bank sits down with one of his most requested guests, Atlanta rapper Omaretta, for an unfiltered conversation about independence, industry politics, mental health, and finding peace at 30. Raised in Atlanta's Zone 3 after losing her father, Omaretta reflects on her upbringing, the importance of honesty, and why being "real" means standing on your truth. She opens up about walking away from Love & Hip Hop after feeling pressured to prioritize drama over music, navigating depression and public misconceptions, and the challenges of maintaining her integrity in an entertainment industry that often rewards controversy over authenticity. Omaretta also reveals the business struggles that slowed her music career, including a seven-year contract, management conflicts, and music releases being blocked or removed. Now fully independent, she discusses reclaiming creative control, protecting her earnings, and building a career on her own terms. The conversation also explores Atlanta's evolving hip-hop culture, her musical influences, dream collaboration with Rihanna, hands-on approach to business, and perspectives on love and relationships. With new music on the horizon following "What Else," Omaretta makes it clear she's entering a new chapter focused on ownership, happiness, and doing things her way.

Money Doesn't Buy Loyalty, It Exposes People with Big 30
In this episode of Perspektives with Bank, Big Bank sits down with Memphis rapper Big 30 for an unfiltered conversation about sobriety, fatherhood, faith, and navigating federal legal troubles. Big 30 opens up about staying drug-free while out on bond, revealing how prescription pills and lean clouded his judgment, distracted him from business, and influenced those around him. He discusses the restrictions of house arrest, protecting his family while unable to carry a firearm, and the emotional toll of watching his children encounter his legal situation online. Maintaining his innocence, Big 30 also addresses misconceptions about federal bond and criticizes bloggers for spreading misleading narratives. The conversation takes a deeper turn as Big 30 reflects on losing loved ones, becoming emotionally numb, battling anxiety, and leaning on his grandmother's faith to keep moving forward. He examines how money changes relationships, the difference between genuine loyalty and performative street credibility, and why his definition of being "real" has evolved. From calling out the music industry's lack of authenticity to prioritizing his children, mental health, and personal growth, Big 30 offers a revealing look at life beyond the streets. He also teases an upcoming project, potentially titled Nothing Bigger, signaling a new chapter in his music and mindset. Rate, subscribe, comment and share.

Everybody Has a Platform, Nobody Has a Code with Dawgface
After surviving 17 years in Michigan prisons, Dawgface says the streets he returned to play by an entirely different set of rules. In this episode of Perspektives with Bank, Big Bank sits down with the self-described “ghetto spokesman” to unpack how street culture, prison, hip-hop, and social media have collided into what he calls an entertainment economy. Dawgface traces his journey from Pontiac to Detroit, entering the streets at 15, cycling through juvenile detention, and eventually serving a prison sentence from 1992 to 2009. He reflects on violence, carrying bullets in his back, Nation of Islam structure and self-policing behind the wall, and how fatherhood and a powerful letter from his grandmother helped change his mindset. His years studying history, religion, and politics would ultimately reshape how he viewed the world outside. Dawgface and Bank then debate what happened to traditional street codes in an era where rap lyrics, podcasts, gossip, and social media can shape reputations, fuel character-assassination campaigns, and potentially become evidence in RICO investigations. They tackle gossip versus accountability, Atlanta’s real “trenches” versus the version outsiders see, rap personas versus street reality, and Bank’s responsibility as a media figure. For Dawgface, the biggest difference between yesterday’s streets and today’s culture is simple: everybody has a platform, everybody has a narrative, and the streets have become content.

14 Years, 43 Motions & One Fight for Freedom with Mr. Beat The Odds
In this bonus episode of Perspektives with Bank, Big Bank sits down with Detroit’s Mr. Beat The Odds, who shares his story of spending 14 years, two months, and 14 days in prison for a first-degree murder he maintains he did not commit. He details allegations of juror misconduct, guilt by association, withheld alternative-suspect evidence, and a recorded confession he says pointed elsewhere. Determined to prove his innocence, Mr. B taught himself the law behind bars, helped other incarcerated people pursue legal relief, filed 43 motions in his own case, and eventually represented himself before securing a dismissal that he says centered on Brady violations and interrogation evidence showing investigators had reason to believe he wasn’t responsible. Now home for roughly two and a half years, Mr. B has turned his experience with the criminal justice system into a new purpose. A certified paralegal with a full scholarship to law school, he plans to become an attorney while helping others fight wrongful convictions and mentoring young people to avoid the circumstances that changed his life. He also discusses preparing a wrongful-conviction lawsuit, building his “Mr. Beat the Odds” brand, and telling his full story in his upcoming book, The Real Suffer the Most—transforming more than 14 years behind bars into a mission centered on justice, education, and giving others a second chance.
